ABC – The Lexicon Of Love 4LP+Blu-ray Box Set

ABC – The Lexicon Of Love

To celebrate the 40th anniversary, the studio version of "The Lexicon of Love" was remastered by ABC at Abbey Road Studios as a Half Speed version! The album includes some rare tracks and concert performances never before released on vinyl! 

A commemoration of the album that ushered in the 80s. Featuring rare tracks and concert performances never before released on vinyl, plus the album's original half-speed mastered at Abbey Road by Miles Showell; a first-ever HD restoration on Blu-ray of the ABC feature film Mantrap, plus a brand new Atmos and 5.1 surround mix of the album (single and continuous) by Steven Wilson plus notes from Martin Fry himself and an essay by Record Collector's Daryl Easlea, this is a fitting, sumptuous celebration of one of the most perfect pop albums of all time. 

Double gatefold packaging with outtakes from the cover photo session by Gered Mankowitz.
